i dont think it is on any specific model be it uk or jdm or sti or wrx.

some have it some dont. tbh its hardly any loss if you dont and easy to fit if you really wanted it.

The hinge is the wrong side for it to be any real use at blocking the sun. It folds down into the car rather than folding down towards the windscreen like the main sun visors. The few times I've had the sun shining in that spot I've tried it and it doesn't help. The new windscreens have a shaded area behind the mirror now any way to help with that.

I've got both in my blob

That`s because it`s NOT for blocking the sun

Agree with above my old my03 had one but my my05 doesn't but can confirm there is a black section on the screen that serves the same purpose.

According to the manual, it's a sun visor.
